Message to Family

Dear family, I am very hopeful I would be able to join this programme, which could be a big chance for me. I could improve my English, meet new people, take care of children, visit new places and become acquainted with diffrent culture. I would like to assure you that I am a proper person to be an au-pair. I would like to tell you some things about myself. I have a big family, two older brothers and one younger sister. I get on well with every member of my family. We live in country, among beautiful surroundings near a forest. Apart from my closest family, my grantparents and my sister-in-law with her 8-month-old daughter also live with as. The baby is so sweet and I often take care of her. In spite of experience with the children in my family, I have others. My first job with children was lasting from July 2007 to September 2007. I had holiday then, I hadn’t to go to school so in his three months I was a nanny for my friend’s child. My friend worked every day from Monday to Friday by eight hours a day and in this time I was taking care of her’s 5-years daughter and 7-years boy. . My activities in this job was taking care of the child, play with her, prepare food. . Addictional job was cleaning the house, cooking dinner. I did like Ania, the child, and I still visit her and have a contact with the family. At present I graduate my high-school and I wouldlike make one year break in my education. I am an outgoing, friendly and active kind of person. I like spending my time actively and I think it’s a good feature when taking care of children. I am interested in sports, cycling, roller-skating playing volleyball, dancing and meeting friends, even just for talking. I am an open-mind kind of person so I haven’t got any apprehention of accepting a job with a family of a diffrent race or religion. I am an ambitious and hard-working kind of person. If I have to do something , I always do my best to do it well. I hope that you can imagine from this short description what kind of person I am. I’d love to learn something about you and your children so if you could write me, it would be a great chance to talk and find out a little about each other. I am looking forward for your message.
